| Quote ="east hull FC fan"I would happily see berro walk away, arrogant bloke who was happy getting the plaudits last year. Now he's getting a bit of scrutiny he's spat his dummy out. And if we could get a top class sh in his place I would pack his bags for him.'"
Quote ="east hull FC fan"I watch him every week and this year on the whole he has been under performing. His body language is all wrong and he comes across as someone who is dis-interested. We don't need players like that and with tommy lee and houghton at hooker i would be happy to see a SH come in berros place or he play there himself until next year when hopefully we'll get something sorted. The guy is class but offer me him or matt orford and i know who i would take given our situation and current players.'"
So your claim that he is "arrogant" and has "spat his dummy out" is based on just watching him at games? You haven't actually met him? |

He does come across as arrogant in the main but so are most aussies i've met, he has spat his dummy out about what exactly i don't know. What i do know is he IS injured at the moment. But my main point was that given the choice between berro and orford at the moment with things as they are and our current squad i would chose orford in a heartbeat. |

 There will be many claims to have met him, very few being genuine.
Every great sportsman has a degree of arrogance; Michael Shumacher, Tiger Woods, Ronnie O'Sullivan. Very rare someone reaches greatness without being an arrogant pr1c k some of the time. |

Exactly !!! Commitment, leadership, attitude, work-rate, and just sheer all-round class in every department. I expected more from Berrigan with his high profile but cannot help but compare him with Swainey and, for me, there is no comparison. |

What a delicious thought! Now he wasn't an arrogant Antipodean.
How much would we pay to get him out of retirement? |

Lets just say he made an almost lazarus esque return to fitness between a meet the players do at the start of a week and the game on friday/saturday after Kear left. |

Ask around...
Richard Swain "Tore his bicep" and was out for the season, yet managed to play 80 mins against Leeds in Richard Agars first game in temporary charge before Sharp took over. |

So what was Swain's beef with Kear? Got the impression he was a clean living moral type and I heard Kear liked a beer in the pub with the lads - or is there more to it?
Would have thought Swain's morals would have prevented him holding the club to ransom? |

Berro doesn't have a touch of arrogance in him pretty down to earth guy, fairly quiet bloke and certaintly not arrogant, think people have listened to too many chinese whispers added a bit on each time and it's got out of control
He has not refused to play, he hasn't asked to leave
He has picked up an injury wrestling with Peter Cusackweek before last but hey lets not let facts get in the way of malicious rumours |

Tell him he should go round to Yeamos in future I'm sure he has a wrestling game to play on, so he doesn't need to wrestle for real especially with people the size of Yak. |
